Board Gaming and Coffee Blends

What is your favorite coffee drink while playing that classic board game or that new favorite? Have you ever thought about the kind of coffee that you drink?

I have always felt that I needed to have a special coffee chosen that would help enhance the games that I play. Whenever the game group busts out Dead of Winter, I want to have a robust mocha or chocolate flavored coffee ready to go.

There is a coffee shop up the street “Shadrach’s” that serves something called a Dutch Mocha that seems to hit that spot perfectly.

The quickly played card based games like Smash Up, Ascension, mtg, and so on, need a faster reacting Sumatra that helps kick the brain into gear and ups the focus.

I normally brew a pot in my Italian style stove top pot and pour it into a dash of heavy cream that mellows the flavor down to a smooth Carmel.
